In the second of Space Intelligence’s Ecosystem Insight webinar series, we move from Africa to Southeast Asia: Cambodia.
Sadly, the deforestation rate in Cambodia is one of the highest in the world, with illegal and opportunistic logging putting forest reserves under great threat.
In this 20-minute webinar, we’ll use Space Intelligence’s countrywide dataset of Cambodia to:
- Show the reality of the Cambodian landscape and drivers of land use change
- Highlight how one of the operating REDD+ projects in the country is making measurable impact
- Demonstrate how climate patterns like El Niño, which hit Cambodia in 2015, can create significant challenges in producing accurate insights about land cover change and deforestation rates in the country.
